<p>
The Autocomplete widgets provides suggestions while you type into the field. Here the suggestions are bird names, displayed when at least two characters are entered into the field.
</p>
<p>
The datasource is a server-side script which returns JSON data, specified via a simple URL for the source-option. In addition, the minLength-option is set to 2 to avoid queries that would return too many results and the select-event is used to display some feedback.
